Galaxy S10 could feature the best screen ever bundled on a smartphone

The Samsung Galaxy S10 will ship with a high-resolution screen that puts that of the Apple iPhone X to shame, according to a new report.

Reliable tipster Ice Universe has reason to believe that the Galaxy S10 will be equipped with a high-resolution Infinity Display that has a pixel density (that’s the amount of pixels per inch of the screen) of more than 600 ppi, trumping the Galaxy S9 at 570 ppi, the Galaxy S9 Plus at 529 ppi and the iPhone X at 458 ppi.

Rumored that the screen resolution of the Galaxy S10 will exceed 600PPI

Less than a week earlier, the same tipster revealed that the Galaxy S10 will come with an all-new Infinity Display that touts an impressive screen-to-body ratio of 93 percent – up from the 83.6 percent found on the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S9. The iPhone X, for comparison, has a screen-to-body ratio of 82.9 percent.

Ice Universe also revealed that the Galaxy S10 will feature a refreshed Samsung Exynos chipset in the EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa) region, while the North American variant will be armed with Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 855. Both will come with at least 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.

In addition, it’s looking increasingly likely that the Galaxy S10 will be Samsung’s first smartphone to feature an in-screen fingerprint reader, as Ice Universe is confident the much-anticipated optical biometric tech won’t debut on the Galaxy Note 9 when it hits the shelves later this year – though that’s far from confirmed.
